The United Nations Electoral Assistance Division (UNEAD)in Nigeria has advised the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to ensure that 2023 general election was peaceful and inclusive.<\/p>\n

Mr Serge Kubwimana, UN Team Leader and Senior Political Affairs Officer, said this when he led a delegation of UNEAD on a visit to the APC national secretariat on Wednesday in Abuja<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kubwinmana said the visit was to seek for collaboration with the APC toward a peaceful and inclusive electoral process.
\nHe said that Nigeria<\/a> had strong institutions and the ability to run its elections.<\/p>\n

We are the UNEAD which is in Nigeria as a result of a request for electoral support for the UN to assess the overall context which the election<\/a> will take place.<\/p>\n

We are to see in what form we could potentially bring our small contribution to the 2023 elections.<\/p>\n

We have conferred with the APC national secretary on behalf of the national chairman and we have done the same with other stakeholders such as INEC<\/a>, government and civil society organisations,\u201d Kubwimana said.<\/p>\n
